Dinner

This year’s program, co-hosted by the UCSF Department of Surgery and the Naffziger Society, will focus on the field of Breast and Endocrine Surgery. The clinically-oriented course brings the practicing surgeon up-to-date on the latest developments in the field with an intensive overview of problems encountered in daily practice. The sessions will focus on common surgical diseases and techniques, with a focus on the avoidance of surgical complications, breast diseases and endocrine surgery.
